Link to purchase Pub Speak (also available for Kindle)Link for nookbook on barnesandnoble.com
Pub Speak is the perfect handbook for those who need to navigate the publishing business. Whether you are a new author or just someone who wants to understand publishing, this dictionary is a great source for terms used in the industry. A-Z - So much is covered that it is difficult to describe. There are agency terms, contract and royalty terms, e-book information, book publishers and sellers, publishing terms, websites and social networking, abbreviations, and character terms.

Although I would highly recommend Pub Speak for authors, I also think this book is of interest for book reviewers, bloggers, and readers. There is information on voice, characters and fiction terms that will help reviewers. Many authors now are self-publishing and Pub Speaks is a great resource for learning the essentials.

To Authors and Publicists:

I would be happy to consider your book for review. Please contact me at annarudow at gmail dot com with a brief description of your book. As you can see by my blog I have varied interests . My favorites are mystery, thriller and Christian books, but I do read other genres. I do not read romance, paranormal, fantasy or erotic. I will accept e-books compatible with the Kindle.I post my reviews on both commercial (Amazon, and others by request) and reader websites (librarything, goodreads), as well as my blog.

Guidelines for Blog Reviews and Disclaimer:

Most of the books that I review on this blog I have received free of charge from the publisher, publicist, or author. In most cases it is an advanced reader copy or electronic copy. Receipt of the book is always with the understanding that I only post honest, thoughtful reviews. I receive a short description of the book from the sender, and then I try to accept only books I will like. I am not an author nor professional writer. I am just a book lover and enjoy blogging. Unless I note that I am reviewing a library, a purchased, or borrowed book, you may assume that my book has been received for review.
